Jemison Looking Good In Her Flight Cage

[MAK]

It still looks like Jem's shoulder is a little droopy but not sure when these pix were taken.  He is a little spitfire so he just really has to learn to hunt.  His flying was awesome, windows aside. 

And we are so lucky he is alive and doing well.

And can I say again, he is absolutely gorgeous!

    Uh huh!

Thanks for the reply.  I hope all turns out well for our little J.  She did have a good time while she was at it.  I hope she has the chance she deserves.

Jemison is so B-utiful!!  Two beautiful parents and a sibling.   Jemison, obviously,  has  good genetics .  I know we should all be happy that Jemison has excellent care and  hopefully be released ,  hopefully not too far away  from here,  but anywhere is o.k.  if she has a successful journey;   we could be watching her/him continue the Legacy on a cam or read about where Jermison made her new home. some day.   Definitely bittersweet.  Yes, a nice triumphant send-off photo when she/he is eventually would be cool!  May Jemison live long and have many offspring!  Thanks to all who thus far are responsible for Jemison's continued health and feistiness!

Probably not right now, but that would be normal.  Once the juvies leave the area they travel alone until they establish a territory.  Once Jemison is old enough to mate there won't be any difference between him (yes, I'm in the "male" camp) and any other tiercel.

That's the way I feel.  I was initially a little disappointed to hear that he wouldn't be brought back to Rochester for release, but I'm confident that the DEC and the rehabber have made the right decision.  Hopefully we'll be able to have a couple of people present at the release to document the event and take pictures.

I agree Jim. The decision has to be in the best interest of the falcon and shouldn't factor in local desire.   

Appreciate the imprints post and the pictures. Looks like he's been well cared for.

Jemison looks wonderful! That sweet little falcon !!! 
Wherever he is released I wish him the best of everything, blue skies to fly in and the freedom to soar!  I love you little one forever!

Jemison, was a hard day Monday - first found out a friend had cancer & then that you wouldn't be able to be released here because B & A won't know you after such a long time away - too much for 1 day.
But you are the most beautiful falcon I have ever seen & you & C will always be my 1st falcon loves I pray you continue to heal so that one day you can fly free.

Thank you so much to all for support. They removed my friends tumor & only a small section was cancerous so that was very good news. I lost another close friend to pancreatic cancer 3 yrs. ago so it was hard. But she is on the mend now & hopefully they got it all & it doesn't spread anywhere else. Again thanks for all your support & I hope to hear some more good news about J soon.
